Assistance with Basic Needs

Our approaches to intervention, rehabilitation and prevention work together to ensure that people in crisis don't stay that way. During personal hardships and emergencies, Volunteers of America addresses immediate needs, offers long-term support when necessary and educates with prevention outreach programs.
